Their thoughts were very simple. Since the Sky Sect dared to come, they definitely had to give them some face. Otherwise, how could they settle the score from a thousand years ago?
Moreover, it was obvious that this person was easy to bully.
If she was asked to pluck it, she would not dare to pluck it, let alone pluck it.
If that segment was wrong, it would be embarrassing enough.
They had regained their dignity.
Gu Chaoyan frowned.
She wasn’t a fool. She definitely knew that they were targeting her.
“When I decide to pick it, I will. After all, anyone is entitled to pluck that flower as they wish,” Gu Chaoyan asserted firmly. She had no immediate intention of venturing to the flower.
“No, you’re accompanying us now,” they insisted.
“I refuse.”
“You must.”
“No.”
“Are you willing to wager with us? If you succeed in picking it, you’ll have free reign over the Flower Sect’s blossoms.” Faced with Gu Chaoyan’s unwavering resolve, they escalated the stakes, fearing she might not acquiesce otherwise.
At their proposition, Gu Chaoyan’s eyes gleamed with interest.
Indeed, the offer held considerable allure.
The garden boasted numerous flowers, many of which she admired. Despite Huailan’s warnings against plucking them, only the Phoenix Flower was an exception. Bringing it back to the Sky Sect would undoubtedly be a triumph.
After deliberation, temptation won out.
She nodded. “You said it yourself!”
“I said it. I’m the daughter of the Flower Sect’s First Elder. What I said is naturally useful,” this person said shamelessly. In any case, she did not think that such a weak person could pluck it. It was fine to agree.
“Then let’s go and have a look.” Gu Chaoyan said expectantly. She was no longer the same as before.
“Let’s go.”
As she spoke, she led them away.
Huailan was a little worried. No one knew that such a thing would happen.
However, the Phoenix Flower could indeed be plucked by anyone, and she couldn’t say that she wanted to look for the Heaven Emperor now.
For a moment, they were in a dilemma.
“But we won’t be at a disadvantage,” Lin Xue said.
Only then did Huailan feel slightly more at ease.
She brought them to the Phoenix Flower.
Gu Chaoyan’s eyes widened.
She thought that this Phoenix Flower was like other flowers, blooming like that. In the end, this Phoenix Flower actually bloomed in such a place.
She couldn’t help but take a step back.
How was she going to do that?
She turned to look at Huailan.
Huailan also looked anxious.
It was also her first time coming to the Flower Sect.
The Heaven Emperor was a man, and he usually didn’t bring any maids with him, so they didn’t have a chance to come out.
The Phoenix Flower bloomed amidst a frigid pool, still partially encased in ice. The vast expanse of the cold pool presented a daunting obstacle for anyone attempting to pluck the flower.
In such frigid waters, inadequate cultivation made one susceptible to the infiltration of chilling air. This could lead to frostbite of the spiritual roots, severely hampering future cultivation progress.
Hence, while the Phoenix Flower technically remained accessible to all, few dared to venture forth. They understood the risks involved and chose caution over recklessness.
Aside from Feng Le, only a select few from the Flower Sect, vying for the coveted position of Sect Leader, dared to attempt the feat.
Furthermore…
“Those who lay a hand on the Phoenix Flower without the ability to pluck it risk having their blood drained by the flower. The extent of this drain is subject to chance.”
A cautionary tale lingered from the past: an elder of the Flower Sect, lacking the necessary prowess, suffered a withered and pallid fate after an unsuccessful attempt, his cultivation stagnating indefinitely.
